My aunt - the diva, as always.

This is supposed to be my dad but of course it looks nothing like him. Being a dim sum cart pusher, man - no respect.

Here's something I remember from the second grade - I had a good friend who was amazing at drawing, and she pretty much inspired me to go at it regularly. We were always figuring out stuff together, and the day I started drawing coloured pupils and highlights - wow... what a discovery that was - she made a point of calling them "deluxe eyes." Unfortunately I don't think she draws anymore, but she was really, really good.

Clio, bb! These are all wonderful! I love Dim sum--especially those little dumplings filled with pork and shrimp...plus those cooked vegetable dishes, delish! Mini Clio looks so cute, I want to draw her now while drawing some 'Deluxe' eyes, which look quite Disneyesque! lol.
I love all of these drawings so much! Go Clio! Go Dim Sum! :^)
You have some really great attitudes in these sketches, I get a little fussy sometimes too so I can relate to these!
hehehe... that drawing really looks like your uncle :P
man! your relatives are very picky when it comes to dim-sum, I generally eat the first thing that comes by my table.
also, nice pics of you guys as kids, my brother was my inspiration when I was young (then he gave up drawing)

HA ! HA !! Love the personalities in these drawings!! Dim Sum is always fun, and it's fun to see people's reaction with different variety of selection too!! :)
Your sketches and cartoons have so much life to them.
...and the aftermath...ouch! :)
Yam cha is so yummy, with tea especially. :)
My relatives are just as picky as yours. If not, more so. My granma used to wash her chopsticks in her tea cup (filled with hot water). Then she'd stubbornly ask for a new cup, actually inspecting it for dirtiness. Haha.
Cute sketches!
Hey! Where'd the 'Old Lady Underpants' go?? Seriously though, this new look is more streamlined...very cool...:)
The dim sum drawings are really funny and lively! And I love the delux eyes story and picture. Send that childhood friend a copy of that drawing!
